School starter sessions at the brilliant Little Hatters

🎒 SCHOOL STARTER SESSIONS 🎒

Is your child starting Reception in September 2026 at one of the local schools in Winterbourne, Frampton Cotterell or Coalpit Heath?

Join our dedicated School Starter Sessions at Little Hatters Outdoor Playgroup 🌿

These sessions are designed to help children feel more confident about starting school by giving them the opportunity to:

✨ Meet other children from their new school and class
✨ Build confidence ahead of starting Reception
✨ Explore, play and make new friends in a relaxed outdoor environment

For parents and carers:

☕ Meet other local parents
☕ Make connections before the school term begins
☕ Especially helpful if you’re new to the area or school community.

Schools include:
🏫 Elm Park Primary School
🏫 St Michael’s C of E Primary School
🏫 Watermore Primary School
🏫 The Manor C of E Primary School
🏫 Frampton C of E Primary School

🏫 If you would like a different school starter session then please do get in touch and I will be happy to host a session in the 1pm-2.30pm slot. Ideally 8+ children to attend to make the sessions viable to host.

Starting school is a big milestone, and these sessions are designed to help make the transition feel more familiar, enjoyable and positive for both children and parents.

If you are a parent at any of the above schools then please share this info to get the word out! Thank you.

This morning the children downstairs went out early for a walk and trip to the park before it gets too hot. They were all amazing walking the whole way and listening really well.

Everyone at nursery would like to wish Faye and Sam a very happy birthday 🩷💜 # # #
